Housing 71 includes：Cable maintaining part 81, inner side and and the side plate of left and right sides plate portion 76 are arranged in as locking member Portion 76 is abutted.Each cable maintaining part 81 has：One body 83, from rear plate portion 75 forward (in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101 On forward) extension；One installation portion 86, is connected to a lateral margin of body 83；And a copulational protuberance 85, it is connected to body 83 Front end a lateral margin.

When housing 71 is installed on the base 11, cable maintaining part 81 is contained in be formed at the horizontal two ends of insert port 13 Locking recess 17 (locking recess 17 is open into before pedestal 11 11f and transversely extended with an elongated shape) in. The transverse ends in the insert port 13 of pedestal 11, and locking recess 17 are formed from the above 11f front convex portions 18 extended forward Lateral outer side (opposite side of the transverse center of pedestal 11) limited by the side of sidewall portion 18a of front convex portion 18.Side wall in both sides The front end of portion 18a medial surface is formed about inclined plane 18b, inclined plane 18b so that the distance of the transverse center at a distance of pedestal 11 Incrementally tilted with forward movement.

The installation portion 86 of cable maintaining part 81 is mounted and fixed to side of sidewall portion 18a.The body 83 of each cable maintaining part 81 At least the front of installation portion 86 part be a cantilever portion 83a, cantilever portion 83a is as a flexible member or shell fragment in pedestal On 11 above-below direction (with the direction of insertion of the transverse direction and flat cable 101 of pedestal 11 orthogonal direction) elasticity becomes Shape.Therefore, positioned at cantilever portion 83a free end copulational protuberance 85 on the above-below direction of pedestal 11 elastic deformation.

In example shown in the figure, copulational protuberance 85 is in fore-and-aft direction and the horizontal body upwardly extended from tabular The protrusion tab of a 83 upward vertically extending tabulars, and the one side shape with a similar right angled triangle.Copulational protuberance 85 It is corresponding with the hypotenuse of side view on front side of upper end formed one tilt edge 85a, tilt edge 85a be used as one be oriented to tilt Portion is inclined to as rearward (inner side of the direction of insertion of flat cable 101) extends and raised.Copulational protuberance 85 with inclination The vertical edge 85b that the rearward end formation of edge 85a rear end connection is arranged approximately perpendicular to body 83.Therefore, when flat When horizontal line cable 101 is inserted in insert port 13, shown in such as Fig. 3 (b), ear 113 moves along inclination edge 85a and successfully ridden over On copulational protuberance 85.When copulational protuberance 85 enters recess 114, front end (the i.e. ear 113 of vertical edge 85b coupling recess 114 Rear end).This effectively prevents abjection.

In addition, in plan (i.e. when viewed from above), copulational protuberance 85 is relative to fore-and-aft direction (flat cable 101 direction of insertion) tilt.More specifically, in the plan, tilt edge 85a be not extension in the longitudinal direction but So that at a distance of pedestal 11 transverse center distance with (in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101 forward, i.e. Fig. 3 (a) forward With the lower right in Fig. 3 (b)) move and diminishingly tilt.Therefore, the inner side surface 85c of copulational protuberance 85 is tilted, with The distance of the transverse center at a distance of pedestal 11 is set to be gradually reduced with forward movement.

So, when a flat cable 101 is inserted obliquely into insert port 13, shown in such as Fig. 3 (b), that is to say, that pedestal The front end 115 of 11f and flat cable 101 is not parallel but be inclined relative to one another before 11, one in two ears 113 ( One of the left side in example shown in figure) contacted from the transverse center side of pedestal 11 with copulational protuberance 85, but ear 113 can ride On edge 85a is tilted.In this way, ear 113 can advance along edge 85a is tilted.In Fig. 3 (b), in order to more easily say Position relationship between bright ear 113 and copulational protuberance 85, has cut off a part for left side cable maintaining part 81.

The following is the explanation for the action that a flat cable 101 is connected to a connector 1 using this structure.In following theory In bright, flat cable 101 obliquely (so that when viewed from above, before pedestal 11 11f with before flat cable 101 End 115 is not parallel, but is inclined relative to one another) insert after the insert port 13 in connector 1, flat cable 101 is connected In connector 1.

Fig. 4 (a)-Fig. 4 (b) is for illustrating a flat cable is connected into the action of connector in the first embodiment First pair of schematic diagram, and Fig. 5 (a)-Fig. 5 (b) is for illustrating that a flat cable in the first embodiment is connected to connector Action one second pair of schematic diagram.In Fig. 4 (a)-Fig. 4 (b), Fig. 4 (a) is a front view of connector and figure Fig. 4 (b) is One first view along the position relationship between Fig. 4 (a) the arrow A-A connectors made and flat cable is shown.In Fig. 5 (a) in-Fig. 5 (b), Fig. 5 (a) is to show to close along the position between Fig. 4 (a) the arrow A-A connectors made and flat cable One second view of system, and Fig. 5 (b) is to show along the position between Fig. 4 (a) the arrow A-A connectors made and flat cable Put a three-view diagram of relation.

First, operator manuallys locate flat cable 101 relative to connector 1, so that the front end 115 of flat cable 101 Towards the insert port 13 in connector 1.Now, when viewed from above, 11f is preferably parallel to flat cable before pedestal 11 101 front end 115.But, 11f is likely difficult to observe before pedestal 11, because connector 1 is arranged on electric slightly by interior In device or electronic installation.When the direction of flat cable 101 is difficult to control to, flat cable 101 may become inclination, that is, Say, when viewed from above, the front end 115 of 11f and flat cable 101 is inclined relative to one another before pedestal 11.

In this case, when operator's opposing connector 1 promotes flat cable 101, such as Fig. 4 (b) is shown, two ears One (in example shown in the figure one of the left side) in 113 leads over another and enters the horizontal stroke for being connected to insert port 13 To the locking recess 17 of one end (left end in example shown in the figure).Now, the front forward extended out from above 11f is convex Portion 18 is located at the lateral outer side of locking recess 17.Therefore, the side 112 close to the front end 115 of flat cable 101 and front The side of sidewall portion 18a of convex portion 18 inner side surface is contacted and stopped.Because the front end of side of sidewall portion 18a inner side surface is an inclined plane 18b, so side 112 will not be damaged due to the contact.

When operator is pushed further into flat cable 101, in plan view, flat cable 101 surrounds side end 112 The part contacted with side of sidewall portion 18a inclined plane 18b rotation, and as shown in Fig. 5 (a), another ear 113 is (shown in the figure Example in one of right side) along the horizontal other end (right-hand member in example shown in the figure) for being connected to insert port 13 Locking recess 17 move.Now, the rotation of flat cable 101 causes an ear 113 from the transverse center of pedestal 11 (from this Right side in the embodiment of utility model) contacted with copulational protuberance 85.In other words, in the figure, the ear 113 in left side is with side End 112 part contact with side of sidewall portion 18a inclined plane 18b centered on rotate counterclockwise, and from right to left movement with a left side The copulational protuberance 85 of side is contacted.

Here, when viewed from above, copulational protuberance 85 is tilted in the longitudinal direction, and tilts edge 85a so that apart The distance of the transverse center of pedestal 11 is diminishingly tilted with forward movement.In the figure, the copulational protuberance 85 in left side Tilt and tilted to the right to tilt edge 85a front end.Edge 85a is tilted so that it is with forward (being downward in the figure) Move and gradually become low land inclination.

Therefore, one in two ears 113 can ride on the inclination edge 85a of copulational protuberance 85 and along tilting edge 85a advances.In other words, in the figure, the ear 113 in left side ride over left side copulational protuberance 85 inclination edge 85a on and Successfully it can be advanced to the left along inclination edge 85a.Due to cantilever portion 83a can elastic deformation, so copulational protuberance 85 Pushed down on and downward elastic displacement by ear 113.Thus, ear 113 will not be due to the inner side surface with tilting edge 85a 85c is contacted and is damaged.

Then, when flat cable 101 rotates, another ear 113 one of right side () in example shown in the figure Into the horizontal other end (right-hand member in example shown in the figure) for being connected to insert port 13 locking recess 17 and ride over On the inclination edge 85a of copulational protuberance 85.

When operator promotes flat cable 101 again, two ears 113 all have been enter into the transverse direction for being connected to insert port 13 The locking recess 17 at two ends is simultaneously ridden on the inclination edge 85a of copulational protuberance 85, two ears 113 pressure copulational protuberance 85 and edge Inclination edge 85a travelings.Then, as shown in Fig. 5 (b), dashed forward when the recess 114 adjacent with the rear of ear 113 is located at engagement When playing (directlyabove) directly over 85, the rapidly moving upward entrance of elastic reaction that copulational protuberance 85 passes through cantilever portion 83a And coupling recess 114.The impulsive force that copulational protuberance 85 is recovered upwards suddenly by cantilever portion 83a elastic reaction is with click sound quilt Operator detects.Due to the rear end (i.e. the rear end of ear 113) of vertical edge 85b coupling recess 114, effectively anti-anti-avulsion Go out.

Therefore, flat cable 101 is completed to be connected with connector 1, and flat cable 101 is kept simultaneously by a pair of cable maintaining parts 81 Lock, and flat cable 101 will not be deviate from from connector 1.Operator can detect flat wire by detecting a click sound Whether cable 101 is already attached to connector 1.

When the opposing connector 1 of flat cable 101 is not tilted and front end 115 is parallel to 11f before pedestal 11, flat wire The front end 115 of cable 101 is inserted into the insert port 13 in connector 1.In this case, two ears 113 are slotting into being connected to The locking of the transverse ends of entrance 13 recess 17, and can ride on the inclination edge 85a of copulational protuberance 85.Then, two connect Close projection 85 to enter in two recesses 114, and engaged with two rear ends of ear 113, flat cable 101 is by a pair of cable maintaining parts 81 keep and lock, and keep flat cable 101 not deviate from from connector 1.

In the present embodiment, connector 1 includes：One pedestal 11, pedestal 11 includes an insert port 13, and insert port 13 is used to receive The flat cable 101 for multiple ears 113 that the oriented lateral outer side of container is protruded；Multiple terminals 51, in pedestal 11, are used for One is set up with a plurality of wire in flat cable 101 to electrically connect；And multiple cable maintaining parts 81, pedestal 11 is installed on, it is described The flat cable 101 of the multiple locking of cable maintaining part 81 insertion insert ports 13.Each cable maintaining part 81 includes：One cantilever portion 83a, With the free end for being capable of displacement on the above-below direction of pedestal 11；And a copulational protuberance 85, it is connected to cantilever portion 83a's Free end.The inclination edge 85a that the leading section that copulational protuberance 85 is included in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101 is formed, and When viewed from above, the direction of insertion for tilting edge 85a relative flats cable 101 is tilted.More specifically, tilt edge 85a with The distance of the transverse center at a distance of pedestal 11 is set to move forward and diminishingly incline in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101 Tiltedly.

Therefore, i.e., when a convenient flat cable 101 has been inserted obliquely into insert port 13, flat cable 101 can be inserted easily The part (such as ear 113) entered without damaging flat cable 101.Because two copulational protuberances 85 reliably engage flat cable 101 two ears 113, so flat cable 101 is reliably locked, and flat cable 101 can not be deviate from from connector 1. It is simple in construction due to connector 1, the cost related to connector 1 can be reduced, and the reliability of connector 1 can be improved.

Copulational protuberance 85 also includes a vertical edge 85b, direction of insertion of the vertical edge 85b formation in flat cable 101 Inner side, and vertical edge 85b engagement ears 113 are to lock flat cable 101.Because the ear 113 of flat cable 101 is with this The mode of kind is reliably locked, so effectively preventing flat cable 101 from deviating from from connector 1.

Cantilever portion 83a is the cantilever-shaped shell fragment extended in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101.Therefore, it is connected to The copulational protuberance 85 of cantilever portion 83a free end can be in above-below direction successfully displacement and flat cable 101 can be reliably It is locked and is not damaged by.

Here is the explanation of second embodiment.With identical structural detail in first embodiment by identical reference table Show, and eliminate these structural details are further illustrated.It is omitted and identical operation and effect in first embodiment Further illustrate.

Fig. 6 be second embodiment in connector housing a stereogram.

Housing 71 in the connector 1 of the present embodiment has the cable maintaining part 81 of shape shown in the figure.When housing 71 is pacified During loaded on pedestal 11, cable maintaining part 81 is contained in locking recess 17.For convenience of explanation, housing is illustrate only in figure 71 half, second half of housing 71 is omitted.

The body 83 of each cable maintaining part 81 has：One bottom 83b, extends forward from rear plate portion 75；One U-shaped turn of bilge (turn portion) 83c, is connected to bottom 83b front end and is extended back after a 180 degree angle is bent upwards；And one is outstanding Arm 83a, in the vertical direction can elastic deformation, be connected to U-shaped turn of bilge 83c rear end and extend back.Install and fix Installation portion 86 on side of sidewall portion 18a is connected to the lateral margin of U-shaped turn of bilge 83c rear end.

In addition, copulational protuberance 85 is connected to cantilever portion 83a rear end lateral margin.Copulational protuberance 85 with the first embodiment Copulational protuberance 85 has identical structure, and the upper end of the front side of copulational protuberance 85 tilts edge 85a for one and (tilts edge 85a gradually becomes highland towards rear and tilted), and be phase with the rearward end for tilting the copulational protuberance 85 that edge 85a rear end is connected A vertical edge 85b approximately perpendicular to cantilever portion 83a.In plan view, the also relative fore-and-aft direction of copulational protuberance 85 is tilted.More Specifically, edge 85a is tilted in the longitudinal direction not extend but make the distance of the transverse center at a distance of pedestal 11 with forward Move and diminishingly tilt.

Remaining construction of housing 71 is identical with first embodiment, therefore eliminates further instruction.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the cantilever portion 83a of cable maintaining part 81 is a shell fragment, and the free end of shell fragment is along phase For (trailing) backward direction extension of the direction of insertion of flat cable 101, and copulational protuberance 85 is located at free end (cantilever Portion 83a rear end) on.Therefore, when ear 113 enters locking recess 17 and rides on the inclination edge 85a of copulational protuberance 85 When, cantilever portion 83a is successfully deformed, and copulational protuberance 85 is successfully to bottom offset.Therefore, ear 113 is not subject to come from and connect Close the strong resistance of projection 85 and be not damaged by.

Because the construction and operation of connector 1 and flat cable 101 are identical with first embodiment, thus eliminate into One step explanation.

In the present embodiment, cantilever portion 83a is one extended internally from the leading section in the direction of insertion of flat cable 101 Cantilever-shaped shell fragment.Therefore, the copulational protuberance 85 for being connected to cantilever portion 83a free end can be successfully in above-below direction position Move, and flat cable 101 is unlikely damaged.

In disclosed this specification, the feature related to particular preferred embodiment is illustrated.With reference to this disclosed explanation Book, in the case where not departing from the spirit and scope of appended claims, those skilled in the art can make others naturally Embodiment, modification and deformation.
